Sanford Dole (1844-1926), American statesman and lawyer. Sanford Ballard Dole was born in Honolulu, and educated at Oahu College, Hawaii, and Williams College, Massachusetts. He was a member of the Hawaii legislature from 1884 to 1887 and was active in securing the constitution of 1887 and in the overthrow of Queen Liliuokalani in 1893. In 1894 he was elected first and only president of the republic of Hawaii, a position he held until 1900. In 1898 Dole went to Washington, D.C., to use his influence in favour of Hawaii's annexation by the United States. When Hawaii was established as a United States territory in 1900, President William McKinley appointed Dole its first territorial governor. From 1903 until his retirement in 1915 he was US district court judge in Hawaii.
